    I think it was the last game before Championship Manager became Football Manager, but I took over Barnet in the confrence and won the champions league in 6 seasons. (calling divisions by old names)

    Season 1: Won Confrence
    Season 2: Won third Division
    Season 3: Won Second Division and Runner up in League Cup
    Season 4: Won First division and won League Cup
    Season 5: Third in Premier League and won F.A. Cup
    Season 6: Won Champions League and Premier League.

    They erected a statue of me outside the stadium twice.

    Greatest championship adventure EVER. I'll never forget that game...then I took over the Ireland job and got us to the semi-finals of the European Cup, knocking out England in the groups.

    Then I took over the England job and had won 12 from 12 games or something like that, including friendlies, and was going to walk the world cup (don't think I've ever won the world cup in championship manager) but then the save game crashed and was lost forever.

    :(

    Many sleepless nights playing that though!!! Legends such as Kasper Schiemichal, Todorov, Luke Moore and plenty others brought my team to glory!!

    Hardcore. :pac:

    Currently managing Brondby after giving up on my dreams of Rapid Wien becoming European Champions faded after I took over Man United instead. :p

    Won the WC with Ireland in FM05 I think. ^^

    That's pretty cool.

    Started playing Twilight Princess again before realising I wasn't in the mood for it (more in the mood for Wind Waker but can't find my copy)... so now I research how to change the game values through homebrew.

    Just remembered that today is my 1 year anniversary of putting down the WoW crack pipe for the last time! :)

    I think I might celebrate by trading in my Wii to get my third DS.

    I go through phases where I concentrate on one genre then lose all interest and move onto the next. At present its Empire Total War.

    Back in the day, Deus Ex had me up all night, one particular night when I went out to a college night, but lost my ticket, couldn't. Went home. Trsut me, the drugs worked lol

    Another thumbs up for Tiberian Sun too.


    But in more recent (and more sober) years, BF2/2142 has had me up 'til the wee hours on more than one occasion, as has PES.

    -fuel
    -prototype
    -cryostasis

    I spent a night playing Morrowind a couple weeks ago actually. Old school stuff.

    DoW2's still vaguely entertaining. As is FM.

    And I was asked if I wanted to join a WoW raiding guild for some unknown reason last night. Given that I haven't played in a year or so it seemed a bit odd. ^^

    Still can't warm to it.

    Technically it's great, it's just not as fun as any of the older ones.

    I do have a couple of daycent campaigns going, but nothing to stir the blood.

    Dungeon Keeper 2 was briliant:D! Decided to pull it out again after reading this thread!

    Never really got into Oblivion but I think il give it another go since I never finished it proper!

    Never played WoW but im addicted to Warcraft 3. Always end up playing DotA when im bored.

    Ive Spent countless late nights playin RTS games like AoE, AoM,WIII, C&C...etc.
